The sales and marketing team in the USA and American
Truetzschler's field service have been bolstered further by
taking on specialists from the John D. Hollingsworth company.
As early as 2003, Trützschler, Germany had already assumed
control of all Hollingsworth's activities outside the USA. This
included in particular the production units in Germany, Brazil,
and Mexico, and various service stations. The company continued
to produce and sell clothing from its headquarters in Greenville
under the name of John D. Hollingsworth on Wheels, Inc.
Trützschler Card Clothing TCC, which was founded in 2003, has
since successfully established itself on all markets. With the
introduction of new manufacturing processes with integrated
in-process quality controls and the development of a global
service network, TCC has been able to assume the position of
technological leader in the field today.
The premium products NovoStar+,
a metallic wire made of highly wear-resistant ball bearing steel
and long-lasting NovoTop flat tops
set the benchmark for today's card clothing technology. The
innovative MAGNOTOP magnetic flats
system is unique on the market.
TCC supplies a complete range of clothings for the spinning
and non-wovens industry. Joint clothing development together
with Trützschler's card specialists and Erko Trützschler's
roller card specialists, and competent global service guarantee
top-quality products for both sectors, even into the future.
